Carottes paysannes

Carottes paysannes is a traditional vegetable dish originating from Provence. The dish is made with a combination of carrots, garlic, parsley, olive oil, sugar, salt, and pepper. The carrots are cut into slices, sprinkled with salt, and cooked in olive oil for about ten minutes.


A mixture of chopped garlic, water, sugar, salt, and pepper is added to the pan and the dish is simmered until the carrots are tender and the liquid evaporates. Once cooked, the carrots are tossed with the parsley and served warm. The dish can be enjoyed as it is or it can be served as an accompaniment to roast meat.
